A question for all of you more experienced ebay people? I bid on a darkroom item recently and received a "second chance" offer through ebay. The reason stated was that the original high bidder did not complete the transaction. I chose to ignore it at the time.
The item re-appeared and I bid on it again, the same amount I bid the first time, a fair price, based on previous completed items. The amount I bid is <$200. I left town for a day and returned to find a second "second chance" offer, for the same reason. The seller has over 1,000 sales with 100% positive feedback! Most of the recent items sold are for <$50 with a couple for more. When I looked at completed items just now, the item was listed as unsold with "reserve not met," as the reason.
I'd like to get the item, but does this sound fishy to any of you?
I'd appreciate any opinions.
Thanks.
Eric
